More than 100 students, alumni, educators and industry representatives joined us at Sky today for the NCTJ’s Inclusion in Journalism conference.

From representation in sports journalism and reporting under pressure to practical sessions on open-source intelligence (OSINT) and digital storytelling, the day brought people together to discuss opportunity and inclusion across journalism.

As JDF alumnus Sammy Mncwabe put it: “It’s ensuring that when I leave the room, I leave the door wide open for the next person, because for me, it’s a relay.”

Thank you to everyone who joined us, and to Sky for partnering with us on the event.

Community News Project reporter Grace Price has been reflecting on a busy few months of balancing NCTJ exams with full-time reporting, while continuing to serve the communities at the heart of her journalism.

Working for the Monmouthshire Beacon, Grace has covered everything from local events to results days, developed her video journalism skills and strengthened her connections with local people.

She believes some of the best stories come from speaking directly to communities and following stories as they develop over time.
